Bifurcated stairs are commonly used in the entrance halls of public buildings. A bifurcated design has two flights of stairs with separate railings and balustrades. A landing at the top of these stairs breaks the climb and leads to two separate sections of the upper floor.
Some bifurcated staircases don’t end at the landing. Instead, they lead to two more sets of stairs, to the left to the right, which leads to separate sections of the upper floor.
Can You Build a Bifurcated Staircase in Your Home?
These grand staircases take up a lot of space and won’t fit in most small or medium-sized homes. Bifurcated staircases are appropriate for large homes or beachfront properties with expansive ocean views.
There are smaller versions of bifurcated staircases which feature a small number of steps and are suitable for smaller homes. These truncated designs can lead from a living room to separate hallways and may be perfect for shared homes when privacy is important.

Types of Bifurcated Staircases
Bifurcated staircases don’t necessarily need to be ornate; many of them have modern attributes like metal balusters and handrails. Transparent floating treads may be made of Lucite or glass and bordered by solid metal plate instead of a railing and balustrade.
Modern bifurcated staircase designs can also be used with features such as a tray, or recessed ceiling. The staircase and landing help show off an upper floor ceiling and turn it into a focal point.
Unsurprisingly, many Victorian homes have bifurcated staircases. The staircases are usually made of hardwood, and may or may not have patterned carpet or rug runners over the treads and risers.
Newels are usually curved with painted spindles or wrought iron balusters holding up the railing. Chandeliers often hang above the landing at the top of the stairs.
